Chemical and Polymer Engineering is run by the Faculty of Engineering at Lagos State University. The course is listed on the LASU admission pages as Chemistry and Polymer, so expect to see both forms of the name while you are searching.
The entry rules are firmly science based. Five O’Level credits, three fixed UTME papers and a JAMB score of 160 or above are the three hurdles, and all of them turn on Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.
LASU was established in 1983 by an enabling Law of Lagos State to advance learning and academic excellence. It stands in Ojo and remains the only state university in the former British colony, teaching more than 35,000 full-time students.
The university offers diploma, degree and postgraduate programmes, including an MBA. The requirements set out below cover the regular undergraduate entry route.

LASU Chemical and Polymer Engineering: the Three Science Subjects That Decide It
Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics appear in every section of this page, and that is the point. They are three of your five required O’Level credits, they are the three UTME papers that sit beside compulsory English Language, and they are the three A level subjects named for Direct Entry.
The fifth O’Level credit is English Language, and the remaining slot is open to any other Science subject. Biology, Further Mathematics, Agricultural Science and Technical Drawing all commonly fill it.
On the UTME side, the screening threshold at LASU is a score of 160 or above. Meeting it only makes you eligible for screening, so treat it as a floor rather than a target.
Check your result slip for credit grades in all three science subjects before you register. A pass rather than a credit in any one of them removes the UTME route and leaves only Direct Entry, which carries its own A level demands.
